A 41-year old woman from western Kentucky died in a tragic accident in Trenton when the tractor she was operating, with her two young children on board, was caused to go off the road and turn over in a nearby field. According to Kentucky State Police, the children’s mother was driving the tractor eastbound on KY 848, southeast of Trenton, Todd County, Kentucky, when the woman lost control of the tractor vehicle. As a result, reportedly, the tractor traveled across the other lane and off the road then overturned onto the children’s mother, killing her.
The woman was pronounced dead at the scene that morning. The young children, a 5-year old boy and a 3-year-old girl, were injured as they were thrown off the tractor during the fatal accident. It was unclear as to what caused the mother to lose control of the tractor during her operation of it.
